COMMENTS
The number .23571113171923.... was proved normal in base 10 by Copeland and Erdős but is not known to be normal in other bases. - Jeffrey Shallit, Mar 14 2008
Could be read (with indices 1, 2, ...) as irregular table whose n-th row lists the A097944(n) digits of the n-th prime A000040(n). - M. F. Hasler, Oct 25 2019
Named after the American mathematician Arthur Herbert Copeland (1898-1970) and the Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős (1913-1996). - Amiram Eldar, May 29 2021

FORMULA
Equals Sum_{n>=1} prime(n)*10^(-A068670(n)). - Joseph Biberstine (jrbibers(AT)indiana.edu), Aug 12 2006
Equals Sum_{i>=1} (p_i * 10^(-(Sum_{j=1..i} 1 + floor(log_10(p_j))) )) or Sum_{i>=1} (p_i * 10^(-( i + Sum_{j=1..i} floor(log_10(p_j))) )) or Sum_{i>=1} (p_i * 10^(-( Sum_{j=1..i} ceiling(log_10(1 + p_j))) )). - Daniel Forgues, Mar 26-28 2014
